J - " ———— Tint California raisin Inn reached such perfection that it is now able to compete successfully with the finest of the Spanish fruit. The loose native Muscatel is now packed by machinery, which has enabled the packer (■> compete- with the low priced manual labor of Spain. The “stquin power, temmer” stemsand divides the fruit into three grades at the nite of 100,(100 pounds a day, with tlt<-a-distance of about twenty inmi. This rapidity of operation would surprise the Spanish puckers with their primitive methods of stemming by hand. To this is added a packin',' machine, which packs the stemmed raisins in boxes of twenty pounds weight each. A garden of k< ep-ak s is described by Grant Allen. The orange lilies came from Canada, the bulbs being given by a Canadian botanist. The spider orchids were dug up by a classically-minded friend from the the. Monte Testoccio at Rome. The Himalayan strawberry that overruns th beds ar rived in a letter ns n specimen for identi fication. The lobelia in the hanging basket by the jasmine coveted porch was wetted once by the thick, white spray of Montmorenci. The snowdrops and cro cuses, the hyacinths and nxifrages, bring back bright* days in Swit -ci la.id or Prov ence, on Welsh hillsides, or among the wild and beautiful Mas a husetts up lands. The United States Agricultural De partment’s report, just i tied, gives the average condition of the com crop in ten Southern Stales, and on this basis the yield for these States, ns compared with last year (in bushels) will be: Wales. ism. isso.

Very pretty are the narrow stripox, two or three incites apart. Plu h velvets and brocaded velvets are seen in stylish wraps. I Felt is to be less stylish than beaver ' plush for hats this season. Patti has a duplicate in paste of every 1 precious stone she possesses. Some stylish house dresses have lace 1 in combination with fancy wools. Georgia started, built and conducted ' the first woman’s college in the world. I'mll hats of silk beaver plush are worn ' by young ladies with their costumes. Unique fashions in outer garments were never more in favor than at present. Sleeves tucked with inch wide tucks , ate seen on little girls’ dresses of fiae ! work. Long garments heavily braided are among the most elegant of this season’s novelties. The full puffed or mutton leg sleeves are still very stylish on little girls’ tine wo'den costumes. A pretty fashion has sprung up during the past season of wearing the corsage bouquet tucked into the velvet, bodice. f lowered fabrics bid fair to be gen - orally worn and are in wools, silks and satins, all in beautiful designs and col orings. Angel sleeves are very generally seen on the graceful long costume mantles which are among the most stylish things shown this season. The Gretchen sleeve is more becoming than the mutton leg and more artistic ami is very pretty on soft woolen mate rials for house wear. Pelts being in vogue the belt buckle is naturally a thing of beauty and many pretty deigns tire seen. Some of them in-' beautifully jeweled. There is a fanay for large effects in trimmings of costumes and velvet plush and wide braids are used as panels with ; marked contrast in colors. Marie Augustin Despcissis, of London, has patented a devise for creating a regular and even draught through the tubes and flues of steam boilers. There were lady doctors in Japan long before the discovery of America. In 717 Japanese nuns attended the sick and pre scribed for the. Mikado himself. Very low crowned bonnets have ap peared at last, but it is safe to assert that it will take fully two seasons and per haps more to make them general. Whole dresses of black or colored Lyons velvets will be much worn this winter, ami the handsome new plushes will also be used in the same way. The polonaise is now made even more graceful and becoming than ever, and is by far the most hygienic of garments, since no pressure conies on the waist. Gloves of light gray and mastic kind, with the seams lapped, and finished about the wrist witii a strip of black leather, and having several rows of black stitching are quite the newest. There is a great variety in the sleeves worn this season, and many styles are of antique pattern, copying Oriental, Turkish and Italian fashions as well as those of the Elizabethan period. Matching a suit entire from head to foot—dress, wrap, hat, gloves, shoes and stockings—is again to be the mode, though considerable opposition lias been made against this expensive fashion. The barbaric idea of piercing the lobe of the car for the insertion of a jewel is no longer considered desirable, and-thc fashion of wearing earrings will probably be a thingof the past before many years. The range of colors allowable in tasloi-imide street costumes is somewhat limited. It includes all the grays, Lon don smoke, three or four dark greens, Gobeline blue, and a new and peculiar crimson. Dress skirts now appealing have the appearance of ungored, full gathered -skirts. They arc, in fact, just that (the front and sometimes the side breadths being slightly gored), mounted on well gored foundation skirts. Mrs. l.a Greer, Topeka's female law yer, has succeeded in building up a good paying practice. She is a first-rate speaker and captures the average juror without much effort. Mrs. La Greer is abut thirty five years of age and rather good looking. There is a fancy for making only that sort of fancy work which is of it lasting nature, since it has been found that it is a w«ste of labor to make too elaborate attempts on frail fabrics. Now the I handiwork must needs be lasting enough ' for an heirloom.

Eight years of careful experiment and pains taking research have resulted in the discovery of an infallible specific for the cure and pre vention of that most fatal and dreaded enemy of the feathered tribe—Cholera. After the fullest and fairest tests possible, in which everv claim for the remedy was fully substantiated, the remedy was placed upon the market, and everywhere a single trial has been all that was inquired to prove it a complete success. The aiructions for its use arc plain and simple, and the cost of the remedy so small that the saving of a single fowl will repay th( expense. Its effect is almost magical. If the r< medy is given as directed, the course of the disease is stopped at once. Given occasionally a * a pre ventive, there need be no fear of Cholera, which annually kills more fowls than all other diseases combined. It is true to name, a Cer tain Cure for Chicken Cholera. No poultry raiser or farmer can afford to be without it. It will do all that is claimed for it. Read the fol lowing testimonial : STATE OF GEORGIA. Department of Agriculture. Atlanta, Ga.. March 19, 1887 To the Public: The high character of the testimonials produced by Mr. Dodge, together with his well known reputation for truth and veracity, afford convincing evidence of the high value of the Chicken Cholera Cure ho is now offering upon the market. If I wore en gagedin the business, I would procure a bot tle of his medicine, little doubting the success that would attend its administration. Yours truly, .LT. HENDERSON, Com’r of Agriculture.
